Joseph Kosinski is reportedly set to direct a new adaptation of the iconic NBC police series, Miami Vice, for Universal, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The film's script will be penned by Nightcrawler writer-director Dan Gilroy, who is building on an initial draft from Top Gun: Maverick screenwriter Eric Warren Singer. Gilroy has recently been involved in writing multiple episodes of the acclaimed Star Wars series Andor, which was created by his brother, Tony Gilroy.
Miami Vice, created by Anthony Yerkovich and produced by Michael Mann, ran for five seasons from 1984 to 1989. The series, starring Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas as detectives Crockett and Tubbs, is celebrated for revolutionizing television with its unique style, sound, and visual flair. The show's influence extended to a 2006 film adaptation directed by Michael Mann, which starred Jamie Foxx and Colin Farrell.
While specific details about the new Miami Vice movie are scarce, it's clear that this project will not be the next endeavor for Kosinski, who is coming off the release of F1 this June. This timeline should afford Kosinski ample opportunity to delve into the world of Miami Vice and perhaps even select the perfect Ferrari to embody the film's signature style.
